Description: "I'm a visiting professor now, or VP, for short," says Gore. "It's a way of hanging on." Albert Arnold Gore, Jr. (born March 31, 1948) is an American politician and businessman, who served as the 45th Vice President of the United States from 1993 to 2001. He ran for President in 2000 following Bill Clinton's two four-year terms. He was defeated in the Electoral College vote by the Republican candidate George W. Bush on a vote of 271-266 with a Gore committed Elector from Washington, DC abstaining. However, Gore did receive more individual votes than Bush. The election was bitterly contested, including multipl "I'm a visiting professor now, or VP, for short," says Gore. "It's a way of hanging on."

He ran for President in 2000 following Bill Clinton's two four-year terms. He was defeated in the Electoral College vote by the Republican candidate George W. Bush on a vote of 271-266 with a Gore committed Elector from Washington, DC abstaining. However, Gore did receive more individual votes than Bush. The election was bitterly contested, including multiple recounts and a 5-4 Supreme Court decision that effectively secured the election for President George W. Bush. Gore currently serves as President of the American television channel Current and Chairman of Generation Investment Management, sits on the board of directors of Apple Computer, and serves as an unofficial advisor to Google's senior management. Although speculation about a possible presidential run in 2008 still continues, he has repeatedly stated that he does not plan to return to politics.

Al Gore was born in Washington, D.C., to Albert A. Gore, Sr., a politician, and Pauline LaFon Gore, one of the first female lawyers to graduate from Vanderbilt Law School. Since his father was a veteran Democratic senator from Tennessee, Al Gore, Jr. divided his childhood between Washington, D.C., and Carthage, Tennessee. During the school year, the younger Gore lived in a hotel in Washington, where he attended the Sheridan School, and later the elite St. Albans School; during summer vacations, he lived in Carthage, where he worked on the Gore family farm. For more information on Gore's academic records, see In 1965, Gore enrolled at Harvard College, where he majored in government. His roommate (in Dunster House) was actor Tommy Lee Jones. Gore graduated from Harvard in June 1969 with a Bachelor of Arts degree. In 1970, Gore married Mary Elizabeth Aitcheson (Tipper Gore), whom he had first met many years before at his high school senior prom (St. Albans School in Washington, D.C.). They have four children: Karenna (born August 6, 1973), married to Drew Schiff; Kristin (born June 5, 1977); Sarah (born January 7, 1979); and Al III (born October 19, 1982). The Gores also have two grandchildren: Wyatt (born July 4, 1999) and Anna Schiff. The Gores now reside in Nashville, Tennessee, USA, and own a small farm near Carthage, Tennessee. The family attends New Salem Missionary Baptist Church in Carthage. The Gores in late 2005 bought a condo at San Francisco's swanky St. Regis. ... (more)
